Good day All
I am using Android Studio 3.6.3
The scenario I need to set up is as follows;
I need a picture inside an ImageView (or something similar). The picture starts in the centre of the ImageView. I need one button which will rotate the ImageView (and thus also rotate the picture inside the ImageView).
A second button which will move the picture inside the ImageView (but NOT the ImageView) along the X line.
The code for the ImageView is
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/mymap"
android:layout_width="500dp"
android:layout_height="300dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="@drawable/mapsmall"/>
The picture is the item @drawable/mapsmall
I define the ImageView in
Java as
imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.mymap);
The code for the rotate animation is
ObjectAnimator rotateMap = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(imageView,
"rotation", 0f, 180f)
.setDuration(1000);
The code for the moveX is
ObjectAnimator moveX = ObjectAnimator.ofFloat(imageView,
"translationX", 200f, 500f)
.setDuration(1000);
Now the rotation works fine and rotates the ImageView.
The MoveX works well and moves the ImageView.
Since both animations target
imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.mymap);
This may be no surprise.
In the MoveX animation how do I TARGET ONLY the picture which is inside the ImageView and not the whole ImageView? My Animation requires me to move the image inside the imageView (if this is possible)
I am new to AS (that may be obvious from my code).
I have previously coded this animation successfully in both ActionScript3 as wel as in Javascript. I know that Java is a much more powerful code than either. it MUST be possible to do this ?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Paul
